'The dragon has haunted the childhood of the human race from time immemorial with its serpent form, its magic jewels, and its power to suggest that there is an immortal self in all things. For its nature is to be the animating spirit in every form, just as it is also the spirit, or genius, of the natural world...; with 155 illus., 16 in color.'
